Self-taught British design king Tom Dixon brings his inimitable take on industrial design to his Capsule collection for Adidas. Utilitarian fashion meets modern construction, and the result is a uniform for the urban explorer.

Thanks to an interchangeable button and two-way zip fly, these contemporary classics can be reversed, too.

All that for a mere $285.00!

Well, at least they are reversible, so it is really on $142.50 a side.

I realize I was still in the monastery at the time, but I think I paid less than $142.50 for my last suit. I'm not proud of that, but just sayin'.
